Proposed Rule on Certificates of Compliance
AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety Commission.
ACTION: Announcement of meeting and request for comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC, Commission,
or we) staff is holding a workshop on aspects of the Commission's
proposed rule on Certificates of Compliance (certificates), which the
Commission published on May 13, 2013. Among other things, the
Commission proposed to require electronic filing of certificates for
regulated imported consumer products with U.S. Customs and Border
Protection (CBP) at the time of filing the CBP entry or the time of
filing the entry and entry summary, if both are filed together. The
workshop will focus on this aspect of the proposed rule. We invite
interested parties to participate in, or attend the workshop, and to
submit written comments.
DATES: The workshop will be held from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Thursday,
September 18, 2014. Individuals interested in presenting information
and participating on a panel at the workshop should register by Friday,
August 8, 2014; all other individuals who wish to attend the workshop
should register by Friday, September 5, 2014. The workshop will be
available via webcast, but viewers will not be able to interact with
the panelists and presenters.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
A. What is CPSC's authority to regulate importation of consumer
products?
Section 17 of the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA) (15 U.S.C.
2066) and section 14 of the Federal Hazardous Substances Act (FHSA) (15
U.S.C. 1273) authorize the Commission to regulate the importation of
consumer products and substances that are within the CPSC's
jurisdiction. Among other authorities, section 17 of the CPSA
authorizes the Commission to refuse admission and to destroy any
product imported or offered for import that, among other things, is not
accompanied by a required certificate, fails to comply with an
applicable consumer product safety rule, or has a product defect that
constitutes a substantial product hazard within the meaning of section
15(a)(2) of the CPSA (15 U.S.C. 2064(a)(2)). CPSC works with CBP to
review and inspect cargo and to clear compliant consumer products
offered for importation into the United States. CPSC also works with
CBP to enforce CPSC regulations and to destroy products that violate
the law and cannot be reconditioned for import.
B. What statutory requirements apply to certificates of compliance?
When a certificate is needed. Section 14(a) of the CPSA (15 U.S.C.
2063(a)), as amended by the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of
2008 (CPSIA), requires that regulated consumer products be certified as
compliant with CPSC's regulations by the manufacturer (including an
importer)\1\ and the private labeler of the consumer product (if such
product bears a private label). A regulated consumer product is one
that is subject to a consumer product safety rule under the CPSA or
similar rule, ban, standard, or regulation under any other law enforced
by the Commission that is imported for consumption or warehousing, or
distributed in commerce. Section 3(a)(8) of the CPSA (15 U.S.C.
2052(a)(8)) defines ``distribute in commerce'' to mean ``to sell in
commerce, to introduce or deliver for introduction into commerce, or to
hold for sale or distribution after introduction into commerce.''
Section 14(a)(1)(a) of the CPSA requires that a certificate for a
regulated non-children's product (General Certificate of Conformity, or
GCC) be based on a test of each product or on a reasonable testing
program.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Section 3(a)(11) of the CPSA defines ``manufacturer'' as any
person who manufactures or imports a consumer product. As such, any
statutory obligation assigned to a manufacturer, by definition,
applies to an importer. Thus, the statutory obligation to issue a
certificate for children's and non-children's products falls to the
manufacturer, importer, or the private labeler of a consumer
product, if the product is privately labeled under section 3(a)(12)
of the CPSA.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additionally, every manufacturer (including an importer) and
private labeler, if there is one, of a children's product that is
subject to a children's product safety rule, must have the children's
product tested by a CPSC-accepted third party conformity assessment
body (laboratory). Based on such third party testing, manufacturers and
private labelers must issue a certificate (Children's Product
Certificate, or CPC) that certifies that the children's product is
compliant with all applicable rules. Section 14(a)(2) of the CPSA
requires that testing and certification for regulated children's
products be conducted before importing such children's products for
consumption or warehousing or before distributing such children's
products in commerce.
Content of certificates. Sections 14(g)(1) and (2) of the CPSA
contain certificate content requirements. Certificates
(``certificates'' collectively refers to GCCs and CPCs) must identify
the manufacturer (including the importer) or private labeler issuing
the certificate, as well as any third party conformity assessment body
on whose testing the certificate depends. At a minimum, certificates
are required to include: the date and place of manufacture; The date
and place where the product was tested; each party identified on the
certificate's name, full mailing address, and telephone number; and
contact information for the individual responsible for maintaining
records of test results. Additionally, section 14(g) of the CPSA
requires that every certificate be legible and that all content be in
English. Content may be in any other language as well.
Availability of certificates. Section 14(g)(3) of the CPSA
establishes certificate availability requirements. The statute requires
that every certificate ``accompany the applicable product or shipment
of products covered by the same certificate'' and that a copy of the
certificate be furnished to each distributor or retailer of the
product. (emphasis added). Thus, the statute requires that domestically
produced and imported products be accompanied by a certificate. Section
14(g)(3) of the CPSA additionally provides that upon request, the
manufacturer (including the importer) or private labeler issuing the
certificate must furnish a copy of the certificate to the Commission.
Accordingly, only presenting a certificate of compliance ``on demand''
[[Page 37970]]
by the Commission does not satisfy the statutory requirement that the
certificate ``accompany'' the product or shipment.
Finally, section 14(g)(4) of the CPSA states that in consultation
with the Commissioner of Customs, the CPSC may, by rule, provide for
the electronic filing of certificates up to 24 hours before the arrival
of an imported product. Upon request, the manufacturer (including the
importer) or private labeler issuing the certificate must furnish a
copy of the certificate to the Commission or to CBP.
In addition to the statutory authority in section 14 of the CPSA,
which requires certificates for regulated products, section 3 of the
CPSIA gives the Commission general implementing authority regarding
certificates. Section 3 of the CPSIA provides: ``[t]he Commission may
issue regulations, as necessary, to implement this Act and the
amendments made by this Act.''
C. What regulatory actions has the commission taken regarding
certificates?
Existing 1110 rule. The Commission promulgated a direct final rule
for ``certificates of compliance'' on November 18, 2008 (73 FR 68328),
which is codified at 16 CFR part 1110 (the existing 1110 rule). The
Commission published the existing 1110 rule shortly after the CPSIA was
enacted on August 14, 2008, to clarify for stakeholders the certificate
requirements imposed by the newly amended sections 14(a) and 14(g). The
existing part 1110 rule clarified certificate requirements by, for
example:
Limiting the parties who must issue a certificate to the
importer, for products manufactured outside the United States, and, in
the case of domestically manufactured products, to the manufacturer;
Allowing certificates to be in hard copy or electronic
form;
Clarifying requirements for an electronic form of
certificate; and
Clarifying certificate content requirements.
The existing 1110 rule did not change the statutory requirement
that certificates ``accompany'' the applicable product or shipment of
products covered by the certificate. However, the existing 1110 rule
provides another means of meeting the ``accompany'' requirement, by
allowing use of electronic certificates in lieu of paper certificates.
Section 1110.13(a)(1) of the existing 1110 rule states:
An electronic certificate satisfies the ``accompany''
requirement if the certificate is identified by a unique identifier
and can be accessed via a World Wide Web URL or other electronic
means, provided the URL or other electronic means and the unique
identifier are created in advance and are available, along with
access to the electronic certificate itself, to the Commission or to
the Customs authorities as soon as the product or shipment itself is
available for inspection.
Related Commission rules. Since the existing 1110 rule was
promulgated in 2008, the Commission implemented the testing and
labeling requirements in section 14 of the CPSA, including two key
rules in 2011, which are related to product certification: (1) Testing
and Labeling Pertaining to Product Certification, 16 CFR part 1107 (the
Testing Rule or the 1107 rule); and (2) Conditions and Requirements for
Relying on Component Part Testing or Certification, or Another Party's
Finished Product Testing or Certification, to Meet Testing and
Certification Requirements, 16 CFR part 1109 (the Component Part Rule
or the 1109 rule). Both rules were published in the Federal Register on
November 8, 2011 (76 FR 69482 and 76 FR 69546, respectively). The
Testing Rule, effective February 8, 2013, sets forth requirements for
the testing, certification, and optional labeling of regulated
children's products. The Component Part Rule, effective December 8,
2011, allows for component part testing and certification to meet
testing and certification requirements for children's and non-
children's products. The Component Part Rule also sets forth criteria
for a manufacturer, importer, or private labeler to certify a regulated
consumer product based on another party's testing or certification.
Proposed amendment to 1110 rule. On May 13, 2013, the Commission
issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR) to amend the existing 1110
rule (78 FR 28080). The NPR proposed to clarify certificate
requirements in light of the Testing and Component Part Rules and to
implement section 14(g)(4) of the CPSA, which allows the Commission, in
consultation with the Commissioner of Customs, to require that
certificates for imported products be filed electronically with CBP up
to 24 hours before arrival of an imported product. As explained in
section IV of this notice, the workshop will focus on the requirement
for importers to file electronic certificates with CBP upon entry. In
the NPR, proposed Sec. 1110.13(a) states that to meet the statutory
requirement that certificates ``accompany'' products or product
shipments, for regulated finished products that are imported for
consumption or warehousing, ``the importer must file the required GCC
or CPC electronically with the CBP at the time of filing the CBP entry
or the time of filing the entry and entry summary, if both are filed
together.'' 78 FR at 28108. The NPR also sought comment on allowing
filing certificates at a time earlier than entry, at manifest. 78 FR at
28090.
Regarding the technology involved in filing electronic
certificates, the Commission proposed filing certificates in the form
of an image, a pdf file, or in the form of data elements that can be
uploaded into CBP's database and electronically provided to CPSC for
review. Id. The NPR stated that the Commission prefers data elements so
that the information can be uploaded and searchable in a database. The
Commission recognized that electronic filing of certificates would
require software upgrades that may need to be completed in stages by
CBP, CPSC, and stakeholders. The NPR noted that CBP's technology would
be used to file certificates electronically and that the Commission
would need CBP's assistance and cooperation in implementing electronic
filing of certificates at entry. Id.
II. What are we trying to accomplish by requiring electronic
certificates to be filed at entry?
The preamble to the NPR states that electronically filing
certificate information would aid the Commission in enforcing the
certificate requirement and give the Commission the ability to search
certificate content information for enforcement and inspection
purposes. 78 FR at 28089. Using electronic filing of certificate data
would expedite clearance of consumer products at the ports and increase
the safety of consumer products entering the United States through
improved and more efficient enforcement. Currently, CPSC analyzes
certain import data provided by CBP about shipments of consumer
products arriving at U.S. ports of entry and then makes risk-based
decisions about which products to clear for importation and which
products to hold for inspection purposes. In a pilot project initiated
in late 2011, CPSC improved its import-related functions by developing
a software system known as the RAM (risk assessment methodology), to
review CBP's import data. The RAM allows CPSC to analyze CBP's import
data more rapidly to identify low-risk cargo to expedite clearance and
to focus CPSC's limited resources on high-risk cargo requiring further
inspection. CPSC believes that the RAM pilot program successfully
allows staff to identify rapidly certain high-risk cargo for hold and
inspection
[[Page 37971]]
and permit low-risk cargo to be cleared through the ports. CPSC can
make this assessment at the time of entry, often before products reach
U.S. ports, depending upon when the entry documentation is filed with
CBP.
CPSC seeks to implement the RAM program beyond the pilot stage. A
fully funded and implemented RAM program would allow CPSC to analyze
CBP's import data for all consumer products under CPSC's jurisdiction
upon entering the United States. In the NPR to amend 16 CFR part 1110,
CPSC proposed to include data elements from certificates in the RAM's
import risk analysis because this data will assist CPSC in making
better and more efficient risk-based decisions for clearance and
inspections. As the RAM is currently being used, the addition of
certificate data would enable CPSC to automate review of certificate
data and to more efficiently clear low-risk cargo at the time of entry.
At the same time, CPSC can identify high-risk cargo for hold and
inspection at the ports. For most consumer products, clearance at the
ports would be expedited by a fully expanded RAM program that
incorporates certificate data.
The proposed timing of filing electronic certificates is
significant because this timing would align with the receipt of CBP's
import data, by requiring certificates to be filed at a point in the
entry process when CBP still has control over the products offered for
importation. Along with CBP's data, CPSC would receive certificate data
at a time when we can make admissibility decisions more quickly and can
react to certificate data to prevent noncompliant goods from
potentially being sold to consumers. The earlier that CPSC receives
certificate data in the import process, the more quickly CPSC can
review and clear products for importation.
Importantly, after the Commission issued the NPR on May 13, 2013,
President Obama, on February 19, 2014, issued Executive Order 13659,
Streamlining the Export/Import Process for America's Businesses (EO
13659), which requires certain federal agencies to significantly
enhance their use of technology to modernize and simplify the trade
processing infrastructure. Specifically, EO 13659 requires applicable
government agencies to use CBP's International Trade Data System
(ITDS), and its supporting systems, such as CBP's Automated Commercial
Environment (ACE), to create a ``single window'' through which
businesses will electronically submit import-related data for
clearance. EO 13659 envisions and is working toward a simpler, more
efficient portal for trade use, to the benefit of both the trade and
those government agencies with related authorities and
responsibilities.
Participating agencies have until December 31, 2016, to use systems
such as ACE as the primary means of receiving standardized import data.
As an independent agency CPSC is not bound by EO 13659. However,
importers and CPSC both have a strong interest in CPSC continuing to
play a leadership role in this area. Electronic filing of certificate
data will further important EO objectives, as well as aid CPSC in
focusing the agency's resources to clear products more efficiently and
improve enforcement of our safety regulations at the ports.
III. Additional Background on CBP's Automated Commercial Environment
(ACE)
Before the NPR was issued, CPSC staff discussed with CBP the
capability of CPB's staff to accept certificate data into ACE and
provide the information to CPSC's RAM for review. ACE functionality was
being upgraded to accept PDF images (Document Imaging System, or DIS)
and electronic data elements (PGA Message Set) for participating
government agency (PGA) import-related forms or other data collection.
Currently, CBP is conducting several test programs for PGAs, using DIS
and PGA Message Set. See, e.g., 77 FR 20835 (Apr. 6, 2012) (DIS test);
78 FR 75931 (Dec. 13, 2013) (PGA Message Set test). CPSC staff is
discussing the possibility of participating in CBP's PGA Message Set
test to pilot submission of electronic certificates of compliance. CPSC
and CBP will provide additional notice, if such a pilot program
involving CPSC is imminent.
IV. What are we trying to accomplish with the workshop?
The goal of the workshop is for CPSC to receive practical and
procedural information from stakeholders, about electronic filing of
certificates at entry into CBP's ACE system. CPSC staff has been
reviewing the comments received in response to the 1110 rule NPR. Some
comments reflect misunderstandings about CPSA certificate requirements,
CPSC's ability and intent to implement electronic filing of
certificates, and the logistics involved in implementing electronic
filing. Moreover, on March 17, 2014, Acting Chairman Adler received a
letter from 32 trade associations urging a ``stakeholder forum'' to
``engage with CBP, stakeholders and technical experts'' on
implementation of electronic filing. Accordingly, in response to
stakeholder feedback and request, CPSC staff is conducting a workshop
to:
Listen closely to stakeholders' concerns related to the
electronic filing of certificates, as well as to provide stakeholders
the requested opportunity to give CPSC additional information on
electronic filing of certificates that may assist the Commission with
developing a final rule and with implementing electronic filing, if
such a requirement is finalized;
Clarify for stakeholders certain issues related to the
1110 rulemaking;
Provide background on CPSC's pilot-scale RAM system and
its consistency with the ``single window'' approach for import data and
risk management set forth in EO 13659; and
Provide CBP with an opportunity to discuss ACE and the DIS
and PGA Message Set tests with stakeholders.
V. What topics will the workshop and the related comment period
address?
Stakeholder comments and presentations should address the topics
below:
A. Stakeholders' Current Certificate and Import Procedures
Current certificate and import procedures, including how
manufacturers and importers are meeting the requirement that
certificates ``accompany'' products or product shipments.
Procedures and processes for creating and populating
certificates that may influence implementation of an electronic
certificate requirement, such as when and where certificates are
created and maintained, matching certificates to those product units
covered by the certificate, multiple entries for certain data
components (i.e., products covered by the certificate, applicable
regulations, multiple testing sites for various tests), and
complications or efficiencies achieved in certificate creation and
maintenance by using component part testing.
Challenges that certifiers encounter, in particular
customs brokers who also serve as importers of record, in using the
Component Part Rule, which allows certifiers to rely on the testing or
certification of another party to issue a required certificate. This
aspect of the Component Part Rule was specifically written to assist
parties such as importers.
Current challenges in meeting certificate requirements
that may be resolved, minimized, or exacerbated if an electronic filing
requirement for certificates were implemented.
[[Page 37972]]
B. Stakeholders' Anticipated Challenges in Meeting an Electronic Filing
Requirement
The NPR proposed that certificates be filed as a document
image, in PDF format, or as data elements. The NPR stated CPSC's
preference for data elements because they are searchable. If CPSC
participates in CBP's test programs, please address whether the agency
or stakeholders would benefit from participating in CBP's DIS test and
the PGA Message Set test. Document imaging does not provide the same
efficiencies that data elements provide because the review of document
images would be difficult to automate. Based on a review of the
comments on the 1110 NPR, stakeholders appear to favor data elements as
well. We welcome stakeholder input on how to focus resources if we
participate in CBP test programs.
If certificates were required to be filed as data
elements, stakeholders would need to transmit certificate data to ACE
via the Automated Broker Interface (ABI). Please discuss challenges
your industry may face using ABI to transfer certificate data to CBP.
Include a discussion of upgrading ABI, automation of certificate
processes, costs, and timing for the relevant industry.
Some stakeholders have noted that matching certificate
information to particular products is complicated and challenging based
on the number and variety of products offered. Please discuss whether
stakeholders require more flexibility in organizing certificates to
meet an electronic filing requirement, including whether and how
certificate data can be streamlined to meet the needs of electronic
filing on a per-line-item imported basis.
Describe any practical and logistical problems, if any,
your industry may face in implementing electronic filing of
certificates. For each challenge described, please offer solutions or
suggestions that would achieve the goal of electronic certificates,
consistent with EO 13659. Please comment on how the government-wide
transition to electronic filing exclusively as contemplated by EO 13659
might influence any concerns you might have with CPSC's proposed
approach for filing certificates electronically.
If the Commission finalizes a rule requiring electronic
filing of certificates for imported products, the requirement would
likely need to be phased in over time. For example, the requirement
could be phased in based on the port of entry, by regulated product, by
Harmonized Tariff Schedule for the U.S. codes, or by entry type. Please
provide any comments or feedback on organized and logical approaches to
phasing in an electronic filing requirement for certificate data.
What, if any, exceptions should the Commission allow from
any requirement to file an electronic certificate and why?
C. CBP's DIS and PGA Message Set Tests in ACE
Provide questions and concerns for CBP pertaining to
CPSC's certificate requirement.
D. CPSC's RAM Pilot
Provide questions or concerns for CPSC regarding the RAM
as the RAM Pilot relates to clearing products for importation and
enforcement efforts. As part of any input on this topic, please
consider the goals of EO 13659 as they relate to risk management,
including seeking common risk management principles and methods.
VI. What topics will not be discussed in the workshop and the related
comment period?
Although the NPR to amend 16 CFR part 1110 contained many
proposals, the September 18, 2014 workshop is devoted to electronic
filing of certificates at import. Therefore, the topics listed below
are out of scope for the workshop:
User fees (we plan to engage industry on this topic as
part of our outreach, specifically through the Border Interagency
Executive Council's External Engagement Committee, as well as through
notice and comment rulemaking, should the Commission receive authority
from Congress with respect to user fees);
Category and scope of products required to be certified;
Format for certificates other than at import;
Certificate content requirements;
Recordkeeping requirements;
Requirements for component part certificates; and
Ancillary issues, such as testing, labeling, and
laboratory accreditation.
VII. Details Regarding the Workshop
A. When and where will the workshop be held?
CPSC staff will hold the workshop from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on
